Crime & Punishment Lift Off

Today, Year 5 Tolerance and Respect class enthusiastically jumped into their new topic for term 5, Crime and Punishment! We started our Lift Off with a walk on the playing fields, but this quickly turned into a full on crime scene investigation! As we walked the field, we found some interesting and concerning items including a hanky covered in fresh blood, two pistols, a sword, a mask, a black cloak, a three pointed hat and two love letters (one from Bess and one from ‘H’). We used the clues to try to work out what crime may have been committed! Back in classroom we were lucky enough to interview a key witness to the crime, a Mr Arthur Daley, who have us vital clues on the crime, including a description of the suspect. The children enjoyed making and e-fit of the culprit and creating a wanted poster. Year 5 are definitely future crime scene investigators! A great start to our Crime and Punishment topic!
